The 2026 MCAA Annual Online Auction ↗

MCAA’s Fourteenth Annual Online Auction a Success

Words: Mason ContractorsThe Mason Contractors Association of America (MCAA) held its fourteenth annual Online Auction from April 24 to April 26, 2018 at www.masoncontractors.org/auction.

Contractors were able to bid on several new, name brand items for half the cost of retail including scaffolding, mortar boards, trowels and much more. Bidding was fast and furious, but there could only be one winner for each of the great items. Many lots came down to the final seconds, making it an exciting auction for all involved.

The MCAA would like to thank the following companies for their generous donations. We appreciate your support of the industry:
The MCAA would also like to thank everyone who participated in this year’s auction to make it a success.

Congratulations to all the winners!
